I had the opportunity to speak at this year's People's Law School about how industries like Big Tobacco have influenced our food system and how ultra-processed foods are engineered to keep us hooked. These are the truths we must confront if we want to take back our health and our communities.

I’m excited to be speaking at MTMP Fall 2025 in Las Vegas this October!
I’ll be presenting on the future of AI in the legal industry. How it’s transforming the way we practice law, the opportunities it creates for justice, and the challenges we need to navigate responsibly.

If I were throwing a party and could invite any of my characters, Michael Carey would be at the top of the list. He’s a former special ops PJ who went from rescue missions in Afghanistan to the courtroom. An incredible trial lawyer who doesn’t always color inside the lines.

If I could choose a historical figure for my trial team, it would be Clarence Darrow. He was deeply flawed—‘damaged goods,’ as I’ve said—but his passion for justice and commitment to America’s underclass made him one of the greatest trial lawyers of his time.

Lights, cameras, and a brand-new story in the making. I’ve been working behind the scenes to bring my next legal thriller to life and I’m excited to share the news: “A Death in Arcadia” releases March 2026. Corruption, power, and the fight for justice collide in a small Southern town. Stay tuned...

Writers like Robert Crais shine a light on real issues. Years ago, he wrote Taken, a thriller that captured the rise of human trafficking on the border before most people were even talking about it. That’s the power of storytelling. It entertains, but it can also warn, reveal, and inspire.

Judges aren’t above criticism — not when their rulings hurt real people. In my books, I call that out. I also shine a light on the lawyers who use their license to actually do good. If that inspires even one lawyer to aim higher, it’s worth it.

When you’re trying 10 or 12 cases a year, life outside the courtroom takes a toll. I remember being on the road 200 days in a single year and trying to balance being a lawyer with being a father and husband. That struggle shows up in my books, where every character wrestles with the same challenges.

There are over 800,000 licensed lawyers in this country. The real question is what do you do with that license? Do you take extraordinary risks, like fighting corporations that destroy entire ecosystems? Or do you take the easy route with routine cases anyone could handle?

I’ve got incredibly talented friends right here in my hometown who are writers. But too often, they face a strange wall. People think, “I know them, I see them socially, why should I read their book?” That mindset misses the point.

Some of the strangest moments in trial are the ones you can’t make up and they often end up as material for my books.
